[Genealib] design of web site

[Karen Miller]

We've been using the Halinet program (Halton Hills
consortiuim) for over a year and think it's WONDERFUL.
 It will indeed index scrapbooks, obits, newspapers
and periodicals, display scanned images too.
Our index using the Halinet software is at
http://news.wilmette.lib.il.us/ if you want to test
drive it a little.
